Title: Rocker cover bolts discontinued from my local vw
Post by: beatboxG40 on June 05, 2013, 03:19:54 pm

Hi chaps, had a good search on the forum to find somewhere to buy new rocker cover bolts for my g40 rocker cover as snapped one but everyone said to call vw, when I called they informed me that these bolts are now discontinued an they can't get them at all. All the usual suspects don't have them; gsf euro bar-teck eBay, and now vw. Has anyone had any luck with finding any and is it worth deciphering German eBay or will that be a no go aswell

Thanks
Andy
